Action Stage

No flooding here. It rained all night, but not as it did elsewhere. Bless the rainshadow. The Elwha River got up into Action Stage last night around midnight, and the emails were flying to and fro among the emergency response teams, but then it went down again.

Early this afternoon at the end of Lower Elwha Road. The water was just heaping past, but not quite up to bankfull. Flowing frothy brown and meeting the blue Strait...

Elwha River, stage about 15.6 feet

Oooh. Nice video about the restoration of the Elwha.
